he called house speaker john boehner yesterday. house leaders from both parties conceding tuesday's election was a call to compromise. >> there's an alternative to going over the fiscal cliff. by working together and creating a fairer, simpler, cleaner tax code, we can give our country a stronger, healthier economy. a stronger economy means more revenue, which is what the president seeks. >> this isn't something that i'm going to draw the lines in the sand, he's not going to draw any lines in the sand, i don't believe, and i think we need to work together. >> the ceo of a global asset management firm put the odds at 30 to 40% that the u.s. will fall off the fiscal cliff. let's hope he's wrong. >>> governor john hickenlooper of colorado says don't break out the cheetos or the goldfish, at least not yet, after voters passed a ballot measure legalizing the recreational use of marijuana. that's setting up a looming legal battle with the justice department. we have this statement from the dea.
